RUN PROGRAM
The file-name parameter must be represented in network form. It must begin
with a $ (dollar sign) followed by one to six alphanumeric characters; maximum of
seven characters including the $. The first character must be alphabetic.
Specifying a terminal name as the file allows you to run PXMCOM on one terminal
and the SCREEN COBOL program on another terminal. However, unless NOWAIT
is specified, you cannot use the terminal running PXMCOM, because this terminal
has to wait for the SCREEN COBOL program to finish running on the other
terminal.
file-name is required if NOWAIT is specified and must be a name that is
different from the file name of the PXMCOM terminal.
For example, if the following command is issued from $TERMA:
=RUN PROGRAM SALES1, FILE $TERMB
the PXMCOM process running on $TERMA must wait for the program SALES1 to
finish running on $TERMB.
TYPE program-type
specifies the type of device on which the screen program runs. The possible values
are:
A PROGRAM object definition can have more than one TYPE parameter value
associated with it.
If you do not specify a TYPE parameter value, the PATHMON process issues a
file system DEVICEINFO query to the device the temporary TERM will run on.
The reply from the DEVICEINFO query is used to determine the appropriate device
type. If the device type derived from the DEVICEINFO reply is not defined in the
PROGRAM object definition, the RUN PROGRAM command fails with an error.
